It will be a kick off

Thread title does say 1st play on offense.
That is why I titled it that way...:D

If I said 1st play, then some would also say we give up a bomb from Eli for a TD stating we start on D...lol...

It doesn't matter. The play will be called back by a Jason Witten holding call.

I think we will be ultra conservative in game calling. Every man and their dog will be expecting some sort of Zeke run. And sure enough, that's what we will get. Like the ol'days of smash mouth football, this is what I'm running now try and stop me. Will just have to see how our line and our star RB can make it happen.

Vinny Testarverde hand off to Eddie George up the gut for 2 yards.

Holding Larry Allen.

Side note: Romo asked for Wittens number and Drew Henson was not happy about it.

What play will they use 1st.
I would love to see a play action right off the bat, and go deep to Dez, or one of his crossing patterns for a long gain.
However I don't think that will happen.

I would say a roll out to the right, and a pass to Witten heading to the right, catching it just outside of the hash marks for about a 15 to 20 yards gain. But may take longer to develop not knowing what the Giants new D will do.

So something more conservative. Most will think a simple handoff to Zeke. So I am going to say if 8 in the box, just an out pass to Dez too the side lines. He catches and runs up field.

Another thing I want to look at, is when does Dak call for the snap. Does he run the play clock down to the last second. I hope not. Though tony was very good at that, it is something a rookie should not do.
Heck, I didn't like it with Tony doing it.

Honestly, I would shock everyone and send Zeke on a Wheel Route just over the LB's outstretched arms for a TD!

I hope and I pray that they don't try to run the same semblance of offense that the panthers ran last night. Cam was constantly in 3rd down.

I want 1st downs on 2nd down, on first downs. We don't need him in 3rd downs all game long.

Fake Jet Sweep to Lucky, Zeke off tackle opposite side.

We're going to see a ton of movement and misdirection early on.

Shotgun formation, Dak throws it up, runs to the end zone and catches it himself for the touchdown.
